Abstract

Regarding an important series of mountain frostbite (1,267 cas), the authors try to explain the physiopathological mechanism. They expose the different methods that make possible nowadays an early prognosis. They set forth the treatment that seems still limited to save what can be spared; and this is valid for severe frostbite, the only ones to put problems. The quick warming up is the keystone of the treatment.
